Paid I'm Gold C0in.

In Dec, 1895, |. :. Johnson * Co. - Custom
House ST., Boston. Mass, offered eight preni-
ums payable In gold coin, which they say crea-
ted "a great interest among people who Kept
hens 50 much 81, in fact. that they authorize
rs to SAY that they shall offer Nov. LIST, 1885,.
another list of premiums for the bests results
from the use of Sheridan's Powder to Make
Hens Lay. OF course all who compete cann0e
get one OF the premiums, but some of the last
years reports sent us show that The parties
ought to have been well satisfied II they he'd
not received any other benefit than the in
crease of eggs they got while making the trial.
For example the first premium was twenty
five dollars taken BY c. A. French, Washing
Powder for eight weeks. The first week he got
only ten eggs: the third week the hens laid 3D.
eggs, and the eighth week :5S eggs. During the
eight weeks trial he got l3sS eggs which, at the
price of eggs in Boston or New York markets
in mid-winter, would have yielded $48O, or
Sl.55 for each hen in eight weeks time. Con-
sidering the small expense OF keeping a hen no
animal on farm will pay like that. The
fourth premium. which was ten dollars, went
to Mrs. r.. Is. Carlin, CODklin Centre, y. Y,
who in the eight weeks received from forty
hens l.0. egg. The first week she only got
&c eggs but the last week go eggs.
This clearly demonstrates that the use OF
Sheridans Powder TO Make Hens Lay will in
crease the profit several hundred per cent.
johnson a. Co. will send two y cent packs Of
Shcridan's Powder postpaid 10 any address for
80 cents in postage STAMPS or a large "a pound

geous spectacle, the cOlors ranging from

of pinks and blues. Some of the speci-

For several years inmates of the par

been suffering from peculiar disease
frequently terminating in death. Thir-
tv-nine cases of the disease and five
deaths have occurred since January. The
disease has generally been attributed to
the damp condition of the prison. A
physician Of the state board of health
made IA thorough examination of the
matter and his report does away entrelr
with the dImpness theory, and states
that the SIC HISS is caused BY insufficient

Two Opinions.
From The Dnkotn Bell.


Mr.. Julius Plugoff, Democrat of Gosh
City, this territory, was recently appointed
to the Office of clerk of the District Court.
OF the appointment ''the Gosh City Peo-
pies Palladium" a Democratic paper, says
"The appointment of Col. Julius Plugoff,
of this city, to the honorable office of clerk
of the District Court gives universal Satisfac-
ton. Though Col. Plugoff is comparatively
young man and recently come to Dakota,
it is a recognition of the young Democracy
in the Territory and declares that the here
tofore accepted belief that man, to obtain
office in Dakota, must have moved here be-
fore the war and slept under gum weed
and ate jerked buffalo meat the first ten
years, is dead and buried beyond the hope of
resurrection. Give the young and vigorous
chance; down with the old moss-grown
and driveling one-horse politicians whose
only recommendation is that they We're
compelled to leave their homes in the East
twenty-five years ago.
In its issue of the same date "the Gosh
City Walloper," also Democratic, prints the
following:
"Jule Plugoff, the dude politician of this
city, has been appointed clerk of the district
court. What is the party coming to in this
territory! This man Plugoff is tenderfoot
and carpetbagger He has not been in
Dakota long enough to tell wheat field
from a jackpot. He would still have been
in Wiggleville, Delaware, backing boots if
he had not first got an appointment in the
territory. He is no more entitled to the of
flee than the man in the moon. Matters
have come TO pretty pass if the old wheel
horses of the party-those who came here in
an early day. endured the hardships of pio-
neers life, settled in the wilderness and
made it blossom rs the rose and were Demo
Gratis when it meant scorn and derision and
no hope of office-if these, we say, are TO be
ignored for such importations from the eff
fete East as julie Plugof."

ARE THEY MUMM1F1ED AzTEcs
Strange Discovery by Miners in 6
Tomb in New Mexico.

Strange Discovery by Miners in a
Tomb in New Mexico.
A San Francisco dispatch to the New
York World says: There is a stir in scien-
tific circles over the advent of five mummi-
fed Aztecs, supposed to have been buried
600 years. The group comprises two men,
two women and a child. They werediscov-
cred some months ago by two miners, Dasty
and Morris, in Theoretically sealed cave
in the canon of the ella river, on the bound
AIRY line between Arizona and New Mexico
The miners were prospecting and noticed a
place closed by human hands. They ques-
toned the Indians, who declined to give any
information, and were opposed to any ex-
ploratiOn.
Watching their chances the prospectors
removed the Instructions to the cave. Huge
boulders, bound by excellent cement, had to
be pried out of place. A search for treasures
was unsuccessful, but twenty feet from the
mouth of the cave they found an Aztec
mummy in a sitting posture, the legs bent
up after the custom of the race. The hands
were folded over the breast in the posture of
alteration facing towards the East. A
further search revealed other bodies. A
mother and child were nesting together in
a loving embrace. The bodies were removed
to this city. They are in excellent preser-
walton, not disembowelled, and were evil
IDENTIFY mummified naturally. The skin is
tanned. The women retain their long,
flowing silken hair. Measurements by Dr.
Paolo de Vecchi, of Turin University,
and DR.. C. NJ. Richter, of Berlin, made
yesterday conform to the historical descrip-
tions of Aztecs, and the general appearance
and mode of burial, and the surroundings
identify the mummies with the ancient race
The bodies were covered with highly colored
clothes which crumbled on exposure. Three
kinds were saved, two of a coarse material
and one a deep blue woven in diamond
shapes No implements or utensils We're
found
All the Consuls here and many scientific
men inspected the mummies yesterday

From the Cleveland PLdindedler.
"My God, Jim, there's a man hanging to

clamation made early Friday morning by
one or two men who were walking along on
Canal street, near Seneca. And sure
enough, suspended in midair, was the form
of a man, who to all appearances had DELHI
eratoly committed suicide by hanging.
Hastily crossing the street, the men notified
parties in the hide and pelt warehouse of

telephoned to Mr. W. L. Heffron, West

"Bill, there's a man hanging to telegraph
pole in front of the store! Looks like a case
Of suicide
"Shall come over for him9" inquired
Mr. Heffron.
"Do as You like" remarked Mr.. Thomp-
son, and he ran Off.
The distance from Mr.. Heffrons under

over n mile and half, but the dead-wGgon

TEXAS TRAIN ROBBERS.
Bloodhounds and Officers After Them
Jim White.

Jim White
A Houston (Tex) special to the Missouri
Republican says: 1t is altogether proba-
bile that some of the road agents implicated
in the Southern Pacific train robbery near
Flatonia VIII be under arrest within forty
eight hours. No act in the criminal caen-
dar of Texas has excited more profound in
dignation than this recent train hold-up By
dawn this morning three posses, armed to
the teeth aud well mounted were following
the wake of hounds. At point not more
than n mile from the scene Of the robbery
the gang split up into three divisions. The
late rains made the trails perfectly disccrni-
BILE, and they were followed without any
trouble. Your correspondent accompanied
one party about ten miles from the trestle
where the robbery occurred, and numerous
traces of the thieves were encountered
Just prior to leaving the pursuing
posse The reporter eSpied an empty can
which had contained deviled ham. The
condition Of the cans remnants showed that
the rnscals could not be far ahead. Each
posse is captained by man who does not
not understand the word fear and who is
thoroughly acquainted with the country
Fayette county is aroused, and when a
capture is made it is not unlikely that Judge
Lynch will take a hand in the proceedings
The engineer and fireman in charge gave
Fayette county officials minute descriptions
of those Of the gang they saw. The detec-
tive force,of Houston are on the alert and
the man who fails TO give q satisfactory
account of himself is liable to be given
quarters in the calaboose. No means are
being neglected TO run the robbers down.
